We wanted to stay at a nice apartment for our last days in Asia. Previously we had used Airbnb services and had no problem.
However, "K" (he doesnt even say his name) turned out to be the worst host ever
We asked him if we could stay until 8pm at the apt, he said no, OK, we agreed to pay a whole extra night by cash
When we got there we were supposed to get the key from "his aunt or other relative" (that is what it says on the property guide), but we got there at 1am and a security guard on the building in front of the apt barely gave us the key and pointed the building we should go in (no english at all...)
According to K we should have paid this person... despite he hadn't said anything about this before
On the last day I contacted him (because he didn't even check with us once...) and he told me the checkout was at 12pm...
After a long conversation via Airbnb messages, we finally had to return to the apt to talk to him in person... so we wasted a whole lot time of our last day in Bkk... money for taxis... and even had to pay more than we had agreed
Besides, K and his "aunt" were constantly talking to each other in Thai, which was really disrespectful
He really ruined our last day with all this drama, that should have been easier
The thing is he has many apartments so he doesn't even care for the guests... just the money... We stayed in many other places and i'm even a host at Airbnb and have never seen something like this before!!!
I suggest if you go to Bkk please GO SOMEWHERE ELSE where you can feel more welcome and respected
There are many nice apt like this in the same area... so no benefit coming here.. ALSO, the apt isn't even as nice as it appears on the pictures...
